There are reports that the United States and Israel are discussing a possible land blockade on Iran

On 31 July, according to daily telegraphs, the United States and Israel were discussing the possibility of a land blockade against Iran. The proposal is one of several options being considered by Trumptaniyah to further increase economic pressure on Iran. The plan may require the United States and Israel to exert pressure on Iran ' s neighbours and regional partners to tighten and even close border crossings to limit Iran ' s export and import trade flows. Retired Lieutenant-General Sean McFarland stated that, although the land blockade was “almost impossible to achieve”, “if Iran is deprived of the ability to trade... then you are economically isolating it. It's the way to make them submit. Economic instruments are the simplest, but they must include elements of military action.” Iran ' s borders with Iraq, Turkey, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Armenia and Azerbaijan mean that the leaders of the United States and Israel must persuade those countries, many of which are not allies. The land blockade against Iran may target important border crossings, such as Inchehborun and Salah al-Salah, which connect Iran and Turkmenistan。
